I wud rate it maximum because I love it. Long time dream came true on 27FEB06. It has done 23000km now. Excellent in shape, style and comfortable ride.
I did not maintain it properly a little while before in terms of oil change etc. So the engine gave a lot of trouble which costed me a bomb to give back the original shape. Now it is fine. So this machine requires a lot of personal care.
Its too personal. Don’t even give it to your dearest friend. It has all the traditionsl issues like oil Leakage, Mileage, etc. Buts I still love it. I get 38kmpl in bangalore city which is cool. It makes me to have a second thought on buying a car. Will I dump this machine after getting a car?? Will definitely not. Because the need is different. Style is different. Thunderbird is What makes it all.
